| BluesKaj | Hiyas all | 10:51 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Phil Linux> Hi! | 11:34 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> OK I hate that I even have to ask this but how do I change the icon for an app that is missing an icon. I am use to being able to right click and set via its. desktop file. | 12:26 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Anarcho Taoist> @Barika, Go to the launcher icon - the "K" and right click it - choose 'edit applications' -find the program in the list and click on the icon. | 12:39 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> Thanks that was not where I was expecting it. | 12:49 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Anarcho Taoist> @Barika, 👍 | 13:22 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> I think it should be possible in both locations.. My intuition tells me right click directly on icon in app menu is where it should be :).. If KDE is attempting to make it easy for a normal user. | 13:25 |
| BluesKaj | KDE is easy, it's logical, like anything else once one uses kde for as while the sense behind it become apparent | 13:29 |
| BluesKaj | as = a | 13:29 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Anarcho Taoist> @Barika, Probably that way to avoid clustering up the right click menu on the app with actions not regularly used, but I understand where you are coming from! 😆 | 13:39 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Anarcho Taoist> @Barika, Nb. I like to put my icons in the root directory. Sudo mv icon.png /usr/share/icons/ | 13:41 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> BluesKaj: I love KDE but for me a desktop should be as intuitive as any user might use it. But I get it you got to use it for a while to figure it out. | 13:42 |
| BluesKaj | Barika, exactly :-) | 13:42 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> So I changed the icon it shows fine in menu but only shows fine on latte dock when I first launch the app after reboot its just a result icon with X in it. | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | I just use quicklaunch in the panel, I don't bother with docking | 14:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> BlueKaj: Yeah but I like how dock functions.. It keeps all my apps off taskbar and allows me to quickly access items that are running multiple instances.. Like I might have several Firefox windows running. I like how it shows me dots for number of instances running I can hover and pick what I want to access. | 14:35 |
| BluesKaj | Barika, I have no need for multiple instances , except of course tabs in chrome, and any active apps are in the "icons only task manager" | 14:48 |
| madLyfe | i have 3 monitors, the lock screen shows 3 replicated lock screens. is it possible to have just one lock screen on the primary monitor? | 16:16 |
| madLyfe | well, show only the login parts on the primary monitor. | 16:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <nggraham> currently not | 16:18 |
| madLyfe | you talking to me? | 16:27 |
| IrcsomeBot | <nggraham> yes | 16:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> BluesKaj: Maybe a video uploaded to streamable showing your workflow might help.. | 16:33 |
| BluesKaj | I don't work anymore , I'm retired so being home user my needs are totally different then a production machine | 16:35 |
| BluesKaj | than | 16:35 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> Still ok be nice to see how you utlize the system. | 16:50 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Barika> Screen Edges option for present windows greyed out. Is there somewhere these need enabled like the grid? | 16:51 |
| madLyfe | is it possible to have my primary monitor be the monitor where its the active login monitor? | 17:48 |
| BootScout | hola cabrones! cada vez es más difícil unirse a este pinche canal | 17:50 |
| BootScout | so | 17:50 |
| BootScout | I am using /home partition and / partition...and wondering how to smoothly upgrade from 16.04 to 18.04 | 17:51 |
| BootScout | also I have a little flaw in my /home partition... | 17:53 |
| BootScout | a folder | 17:53 |
| BootScout | home/PersonalFolder/usr/src | 17:54 |
| diogenes_ | !es | BootScout | 17:54 |
| ubottu | BootScout: En la mayoría de los canales de Ubuntu, se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español entre al canal #ubuntu-es; escriba " /join #ubuntu-es " (sin comillas) y presione intro. | 17:54 |
| BootScout | I think that folder should not be there at all...am I wrong? | 17:54 |
| BootScout | I don't chat with bots | 17:54 |
| BootScout | from now on I will keep my spanish for my madre | 17:55 |
| BootScout | hello? | 17:56 |
| BootScout | bussy people | 17:56 |
| diogenes_ | BootScout, i'd suggest re-installation | 17:57 |
| BootScout | I wonder where have all the good times gone... | 17:57 |
| BootScout | oh? | 17:57 |
| BootScout | really? | 17:57 |
| BootScout | I use intensively the home partition | 17:58 |
| diogenes_ | and? | 17:58 |
| BootScout | won't re-installing make me lose it? | 17:58 |
| BootScout | oh no | 17:59 |
| BootScout | I see | 17:59 |
| BootScout | sure | 17:59 |
| BootScout | it might be compatible right? | 17:59 |
| BootScout | with the new version... | 17:59 |
| diogenes_ | BootScout, if you got a separate partition for /home then you're fine | 17:59 |
| diogenes_ | just reassing it as home and don't forget NOT to mark for formatting | 17:59 |
| BootScout | reinstalling is best then | 17:59 |
| BootScout | hmmm | 18:00 |
| BootScout | but | 18:00 |
| BootScout | I use a dual boot aswell | 18:00 |
| BootScout | with win10 | 18:00 |
| diogenes_ | BUT, there is a but, before re-installation, i'd advice to remove all the .file and .folder from /home, you can backup some configs for apps you use most and go ahead re-installing | 18:01 |
| BootScout | so you suggest me to burn a cd or usb with the new lts and reinstall it | 18:01 |
| diogenes_ | and dual boot won't be an issue | 18:01 |
| BootScout | I see | 18:01 |
| diogenes_ | i'd suggest a usb | 18:01 |
| BootScout | I successfully upgrade an ubuntu from 16.04 to 18.04 but not a kubuntu that's why I was asking here | 18:02 |
| BootScout | the other thing holding my horses is...the nvidia driver | 18:03 |
| BootScout | I know I installed the propietary driver... | 18:03 |
| BootScout | and I recall a strong advice about that... | 18:03 |
| BootScout | and I bet they still didn't fix that part | 18:03 |
| diogenes_ | i use nouveau so i don't care about nvidia proprietary crap | 18:04 |
| diogenes_ | but i guess it won't be an issue | 18:04 |
| BootScout | I see | 18:04 |
| BootScout | so you don't trust the 'there is a new Kubuntu version available, do you want to upgrade now?' message huh? | 18:06 |
| BootScout | why so?¿ | 18:06 |
| madLyfe | how does one only show notification popups on the main monitor? i have 3 and a panel on each so i get the same notification that pops up on all 3. | 18:07 |
| BootScout | hah | 18:07 |
| diogenes_ | i didn't say i don't trust, but i just suggested the more precise way that can skip you some minor issues that can occur after the upgrade | 18:08 |
| BootScout | and sms to mobile phone¿ | 18:08 |
| diogenes_ | especially if we taking about nvidia prorpietary | 18:08 |
| BootScout | okay | 18:08 |
| BootScout | you win | 18:08 |
| BootScout | I will follow that advice | 18:08 |
| BootScout | but not today... | 18:08 |
| BootScout | it is twilight again... | 18:09 |
| BootScout | thank you very much! | 18:09 |
| BootScout | it's been nice meeting you | 18:09 |
| BootScout | byeee | 18:09 |
| BootScout | diogenes_ there is one more thing though | 18:18 |
| diogenes_ | ? | 18:18 |
| BootScout | I am using Mysql the old LAMP thingy | 18:18 |
| BootScout | and I have several db running | 18:19 |
| BootScout | so now that I think twice...I don't like your advice | 18:19 |
| diogenes_ | then why upgrading? | 18:20 |
| BootScout | mysql version compatibility is a pain | 18:20 |
| diogenes_ | what you don't like about your current setup? | 18:20 |
| diogenes_ | oh i see | 18:20 |
| BootScout | time | 18:20 |
| BootScout | lts ending | 18:20 |
| diogenes_ | then you're on your own, try upgrading | 18:20 |
| BootScout | I like the distant horizon of the new lts support | 18:20 |
| BootScout | upgrading would in theory keep my mysql installation wouldn't it? | 18:21 |
| diogenes_ | i'm not aware about the server stuff so i can't help you there | 18:21 |
| BootScout | okay | 18:23 |
| BootScout | and for activities? | 18:23 |
| BootScout | kubuntu activities are cool | 18:23 |
| BootScout | I have about 10 different activities in my desktop | 18:23 |
| BootScout | are they still a thing in the new lts? | 18:23 |
| BootScout | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyEDyNQmpms | 18:24 |
| BootScout | Miedo a volar | 18:24 |
| diogenes_ | you can read the release notes | 18:25 |
| BootScout | :-) | 18:25 |
| BootScout | I ll go fetching my 3d glasses | 18:25 |
| diogenes_ | lol | 18:25 |
| BootScout | common don't tell me you don't like my shadow | 18:26 |
| BootScout | the sun is killer these days | 18:26 |
| BootScout | but you know what? | 18:27 |
| diogenes_ | ? | 18:28 |
| BootScout | we have a daring robot heading to it | 18:28 |
| BootScout | with nothing but a sunscreen | 18:28 |
| BootScout | just a note for iliterate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diogenes_and_Alexander (4 line in the original anecdote paragraph) | 18:34 |
